Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Kentucky | Big wins versus bad opponents this week. We'll have to wait til Louisville for a challenge. |
2 | Michigan State | Valentine is reason enough, on top of the Providence win |
3 | Iowa State | Wins over Chattanooga, Virginia Tech, Illinois are all "meh" wins......oh well |
4 | Maryland | Still that convincing win to show they mean business.....good thing UNC is up tomorrow. |
5 | Oklahoma | Beat Wisconsin pretty well, but that Villanova game is looking good now. |
6 | Villanova | Beating Stanford and Georgia Tech is solid....just not great. |
7 | Kansas | Beating UCLA and Vandy plus getting Diallo back |
8 | Duke | Blow outs over Yale and Utah State lets us know they can score...that's about it |
9 | North Carolina | Wins over Northwestern and Kansas State are solid, but a win over Maryland would be even better |
10 | Purdue | Killed Lehigh and await good competition. Can't wait for Vandy Bigs vs Purdue Bigs. |
11 | Virginia | This Virginia will probably be a team that beats good teams, but loses to bad teams...just watch. |
12 | Xavier | Beat Dayton, USC, Alabama, and Michigan all by good margins. |
13 | Gonzaga | Good wins versus Washington and UConn, and Texas A&M is good team this year as well. |
14 | Oregon | Baylor was a good win, but more quality wins would be assuring. |
15 | Vanderbilt | Destroyed Wake and St John's before losing to a good Kansas team. |
16 | Cincinnati | Win over George Washington was impressive enough. |
17 | Louisville | Big win over St Louis, but Michigan State is the true measuring stick. |
18 | Providence | Dunn really has a great impact on this team's play. |
19 | Arizona | A win against Gonzaga would get them back on track, although no shame in losing to a good Providence team. |
20 | West Virginia | San Diego St win is their best win to date |
21 | Syracuse | Took care of two top 25 teams in one week....very well done Syracuse. |
22 | Texas A&M | Despite the loss to Syracuse, wins versus Texas and Gonzaga look good. |

24 | SMU | Really haven't beat anyone good at all.....sooooo |
25 | Indiana | Good new is they barely loss to Wake and UNLV....bad news is they loss to Wake and UNLV |
